I LIKE SCHOOL AND SCHOOL LIKES ME

WHAT IF AN ARTIST AND SCHOOL MEET?

As part of a collaboration with Design Museum Den Bosch Artemis realised an edgy art project ‘I Like School and School Likes Me’. Between April 2017 and January 2019, ten different artists stayed at nine secondary schools – for three days and three nights. I like school and school likes me is a contemporary re-enactment of the performance I like America and America likes Me by Joseph Beuys. Liesbet Swings expierenced a striking metaphor for the tense relationship between art and education. Filmmaker Melanie Pardoel created a documentary of every performance.
